Kevin Hart warned us. Will Ferrell is one of the funniest people alive and he confirmed it on ALL THE SMOKE. Matt & Stak got into all of it with Will: Anchorman, Old School, Talladega Nights, Semi-Pro, plus his new series "The Hawk," where he plays Lonnie Hawkins, a pro golfer chasing his magic late in his career. And because Will is a diehard Lakers fan, he told us about the time he "ejected" Shaq from a game. We could try to explain the rest, but we were laughing too hard to take notes. Just watch or listen. After years of calling Stak "Ron Burgundy" for reading anything that hits the screen, this one has been a long time coming.

You don't find many as talented as the hilarious Deon Cole between acting, directing, and comedy. We got up with the Chicago comedy legend to talk about his role as Don King in the Michael movie and the current state of comedy. Deon had us rolling with stories about getting security called on him at the Roots Picnic, the time Idris Elba pistol whipped him on the set of The Harder They Fall, and watching DeRay Davis's evolution up close. Few guests had us laughing quite like Deon.
